EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable coin portraying the Emperor Theodosius, who reigned from 379 to 395. Created by an unknown artist and minted in Constantinople (modern-day Istanbul), this ancient Roman artifact is a testament to the rich history of the fourth century. The coin's bronze surface exudes a warm color that adds depth and character to its intricate design. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time, immersing ourselves in the vibrant artistry of ancient Rome. The profile portrait of Emperor Theodosius commands our attention with its regal presence. His noble features reflect his status as a powerful ruler of the Roman Empire, while also capturing his individuality as a man. As we contemplate this piece, we cannot help but marvel at how currency itself can be transformed into an exquisite work of art. This coin not only served as a means of exchange but also represented wealth and power during its time. Now housed within the prestigious Art Institute Chicago's collection on arts of the ancient Mediterranean and Byzantium, this heritage artwork stands as a testament to human creativity throughout history. It serves as a reminder that even everyday objects like coins can carry immense cultural significance and offer us glimpses into distant civilizations. Through this photo print, we have been granted access to an extraordinary piece of numismatics—a tangible link between past and present—allowing us to appreciate both its aesthetic beauty and historical value for generations to come.
